This issue seems to be reproducible. If i create a debian 9 container from scratch it will run fine, but if i upgrade debian 8 to debian 9 the container no longer starts.

Code:
$ cat /etc/debian_version

9.3


$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http       ://ftp.us.debian.org/debian stretch main contrib
# deb http       ://download.proxmox.com/debian jessie pve-no-subscription
# security updates
deb http       ://security.debian.org stretch/updates main contrib

$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve-enterprise.list
# deb http      ://ftp.debian.org/debian stretch main contrib

# PVE pve-no-subscription repository provided by proxmox.com,
# NOT recommended for production use
deb http      ://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve stretch pve-no-subscription

# security updates
# deb http      ://security.debian.org stretch/updates main contrib


Code:
$ sudo lxc-start --name=120 --foreground --logfile log
lxc-start: 120: tools/lxc_start.c: main: 371 The container failed to start.
lxc-start: 120: tools/lxc_start.c: main: 375 Additional information can be obtained by setting the --logfile and --logpriority options.

$ cat log

we have 20 lxc's which were upgraded from jessie to stretch. I did that some time ago.

there were sometimes issues . I used debug and logging to find out the issues:
Code:
lxc-start -n  120    -F --logfile=/root/lxc.log --logpriority=debug
 
Thanks, looking through it now

based on the init error,
you may also check /var/log/syslog and others logs at /var/log/ within the lxc.

for zfs storage that is usually easy. what type of storage are you using?
 
We are using a software raid with mdadm.

looks like there is an ext4-fs error
